The Steiner Audio Restoration Process
Every modernized vintage audio console that enters our Memphis workshop follows a rigorous path to rebirth. We don’t just fix old radios; we engineer a mid-century modern sound system that meets today’s audiophile standards while preserving the soul of the original furniture.
Cabinet Refinishing: We perform a meticulous strip and refinish of the original walnut, mahogany, or teak, addressing decades of surface wear to restore the piece’s iconic mid-century luster.
Modern Tech Integration: We replace outdated internals with high-res streaming capabilities via WiiM and integrate HDMI ARC audio. This allows your vintage console to function as a high-fidelity sound system for your modern television, controlled entirely from your smartphone.
Precision Audio: By installing a new Audio Technica turntable and updated driver components, we ensure your record collection sounds better than it ever did on the original factory hardware.
This is high-res streaming vintage audio, built to serve as the centerpiece of your home for another 60 years.
